and we're just getting started. building 100,000 miles of new infrastructure to reach those who need it most. >> charter communications supports c-span as a public service, along with these other television providers, giving you a front row seat to address. row seat to democracy. host: dave from minnesota. you're first up. hello. approximately 80,000 to 10 americans die from overdoses every year. if we were to go after and make this analogous to other substances, tobacco kills approximately half a million americans a year. we probably should be bombing tobacco companies.

further comment regarding this is that these people on these boats are generally blackmailed into giving this smuggling by the cartels. they are ordinary people whose families are threatened if they don't cooperate with the cartels. we are really killing pretty innocent people. it is really disgraceful, cowardly and it is more of trump's thuggery. i would encourage the president if he is trying to stop the tragedies from drugs. thank you very much. host: steve in idaho, republican line. caller: hi. i agree with what one of the people were saying 10 minutes

ago. if there is no demand on it, they will be no supplies here. in order to get a fair trial you have to be a citizen. you can just have a fair trial when you're not a citizen. you don't have citizens rights. anyone who does not have citizens rights ought to be put back in line in their own country. with the people we are bombing their boats, they are not innocent. i understand what the guy is saying, they are threatening their families and stuff. sometimes you have to make a point and say am i going to do the right thing or the wrong thing? facing god doing the right thing will be better than facing guy doing the wrong thing. i also think that trump is a little hard but he's also been a little successful.

we heard talk of cia in venezuela. if you have 11 people on a boat that will really affect the amount you can carry. this placement is a thing and you cannot just put unlimited weight in these. with these tiny boats you would not be able to move the amount of drugs you need or navigate the open ocean between venezuela and the u.s.. i'm not sure if anyone has actually been on a boat and a large body of water. the waves will capsize something that size. host: chuck in delaware on the democrats line. caller: good morning, america. a few months ago it was all tied in. there were two people captured on one of these boats. after the boat was destroyed. they were immediately sent back

to their countries. whatever happened to those people? are they tied into this somehow? where did that story go? i have heard no reporting on it since. that is my question. thank you. host: mike in illinois, independent line. caller: good morning. four or five stories are underreported. the regulations on snap and medicare as they take off the regulation for utilities and insurance is a little shocking. could alexion interference be when the president tries a primary elected official? alexion interference be where he has a company move here with all their employees into one of the seven swing states that
